Yetis: beyond the mysterious

Yeti: Descendants of Hanuman

"As a curious note, many Hindus also believe that the yeti. - the mysterious "abominable snowmen" who are thought to inhabit the inaccessible heights of the Himalayas - may be the descendants of Hanuman and his apelike but intelligent people," Noorbergen, Rene said in his book 'Lost Races: New Discoveries of Advanced Secrets of the Technology in Ancient..'

Now 'BigFoot', not Big B or Big Brother

Abominable Snowman Yeti is usually said to be six feet tall or even taller. They have very large feet, about 20 inches long. As a matter of fact, it is from where its name "Bigfoot" was derived. They are heavily built, hairy and apelike with their dark or reddish brown fur and their facial features quite resemble those of a human being. Their means of communication are grunts, cries, or whistles.

Destination Truth found the truth of Yeti

"We are happy to say that we have found footprints of yeti. And the snowman is no more a legend for us now," Joshua Gates, the team leader of the expedition of the American television channel Destination Truth, told the media on Nov 30, 2007, as reported by the media now. http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2007-12/01/content_7179448.htm

Photo of Yeti's footprint auctioned

Before that, a photo that might be the best evidence of the yeti was sold on Sept 25, 2007, for £ 3,500 at an auction in London. The mysterious footprint was photographed in the Nepal-Tibet border region of the Himalayas in 1951 by a team of mountaineers heading for Everest.

Some scientists that viewed the photographs could not identify the tracks as from any known creature. Others, though, felt it was probably the trail of a langur monkey or red bear. They noted the tracks in the snow, melted by the sun, can change shape and grow larger.

Father of Tenzing Norge saw Yeti

Many people have claimed to have seen the Yeti. Among those include the father of Tenzing Norgay Sherpa, the first person to climb Everest.

Britney in Yeti Fur Jacket

Former BFFs and crotch graph compadres, Paris Hilton and Britney Spears, in the midnight of New Year at the Scandinavian Style Mansion -- but this time, the only flashing came from photogs! Although the two walked out together, Britz and her Yeti fur jacket took off for another destination -- while Miss P hopped into her car, put on makeup ... and then ducked back into the party!

Writer Sean Curtis wrote in his book titled 'Steal this book too':

"The Yeti is referred to by other names, depending on the geographical area of the sighting or the legend. In Nepal, three Snowman types are known: the very large Yeti, known to be vegetarian except in cases where lack of food drives them into becoming omnivorous; a smaller variety that is destructive and carnivorous; and the creature often referred to as Rakshi-Bompo, which is smaller, often mischievous, raids crops, and known to flee from the approach of humans. 

The Rakshi-Bompo may have derived its name from a beast referred to in the Indian epic poem, the Ramayana. This third or fourth-century poem includes passages that tell of the existence of demons called Raksha, which is often described as having a similar appearance to that of a Yeti. In different areas of the Himalayas, the Yeti has been called Bang, Bangjakri, Ban Vanas, and Van Manas, among other variations. In the Russian Caucasus, tales and evidence of Yeti-type creatures flourish,"

Is the Yeti a sub-human animal, a descendant of Hanuman that is yet to be discovered? Christian Italian-origin-led Congress-led UPA Govt denied the existence of Ram in the Supreme Court. Jairam Ramesh, a minister, criticized the Cultural Minister Ambika Soni. Because of this sin, he has been thrown away now from the think tank of Congress which is created by Sonia Gandhi. Can the same UPA govt dare to file the same type of affidavit on the non-existence of Christ? Bofors to Ramdrohi Affidavit http://www.newsanalysisindia.com/127092007.htm

Yeti on the Roof of the World

The Himalayan Mountains, the highest range on Earth, have been referred to as the "roof of the world." If that is so, there is a mystery called the Yeti in our attic. In Tibetan the word means "magical creature" and truly it is a seemingly supernatural enigma in the shape of a hairy, biped creature that resembles a giant ape.

1925 Tombazi found Yeti

Stories of Aboriginal go back to 1925 when other climbers had glimpsed it. A.M.Tombazi in the area of Sikkim also made an earlier sighting of a possible hominid creature, in 1925. Although attributed to the Yeti, the sighting could have also been that of another creature possibly related to, and resembling the Yeti.

"Unquestionably, the figure in outline was exactly like a human being, walking upright and stopping occasionally to uproot or pull at some dwarf rhododendron bushes," said Tombazi, "It showed up dark against the snow and, as far as I could make out wore no clothes."

The creature disappeared before Tombazi could take a photograph and was not seen again. The group was descending, though, and the photographer went out of his way to see the ground where he had spotted the creature. Tombazi found footprints in the snow.

"They were similar in shape to those of a man, but only six to seven inches long by four inches wide at the broadest part of the foot. The marks of five distinct toes and the instep were perfectly clear, but the trace of the heel was indistinct..."

There were 15 prints to be found. Each was one and one-half to two feet apart. Then Tombazi lost the trail in a thick brush. When the locals were asked to name the beast he'd seen they told him it was a "Kangchenjunga demon."

As mentioned above in the book of Sean Curtis, Ramayan tells the existence of demons called Raksha, which is often described as having a similar appearance to that of a Yeti. Rambhakt in a foreign land and Ramdrohi in Bharatbhumi! Why? http://www.newsanalysisindia.com/102062007.htm

Tombazi didn't think he'd seen a demon, but he couldn't figure out what the creature was either. Perhaps he'd seen a wandering Buddhist or Hindu ascetic or hermit. As the years went by though and other Yeti stories surfaced, Tombazi began to wonder if he'd seen one too.

Many more people have claimed that they saw the Yeti. Among those who have seen a Yeti include the father of Tenzing Norge Sherpa, the first conqueror of Everest. Some local Sherpa believes that the Himalayas are abodes of strange creatures and consider the Yeti (also popularly known as the "abominable snowman") as a protector. Others say it is a destroyer.

In 1938 Yeti nursed Captain d'Auvergue

One closer encounter with a Yeti occurred in 1938. Captain d'Auvergue, the curator of the Victoria Memorial in Calcutta, India, was travelling the Himalayas by himself when he became snowblind. As he neared death from the exposure he was rescued by a nine-foot-tall Yeti that nursed him back to health until d'Auvergue was able to return home by himself.

The encounter of a Sherpa Girl with the Yeti

One Sherpa girl, who was tending her yaks, described being surprised by a large ape-like creature with black and brown hair. It started to drag her off but seemed to be startled by her screams and let her go. It then savagely killed two of her yaks. She escaped with her life and the incident was reported to the police, who found footprints.

The London Daily Mail sent an expedition in 1954. American oilmen Tom Slick and F. Kirk Johnson financed trips in 1957, 58, and 59. Probably the most well-known expedition went on in 1960.

The Yeti is said to make random appearances around the Khumbu region (i.e. at foothills of the Everest.) Still doubted for its existence by those who have not seen it, the Yeti is known to eat Yaks, sheep, etc. Many people feel, however, the Yeti of the Nepali Himalayas are peaceful creatures.
